Wc3libs

Pure Java library for general wc3 modding and tool development. With Wc3libs we aim to offer a feature-complete, easy, plug & play solution for jvm applications to access, modify and output any kind of Warcraft III specific game data.

Usage

Use this library in your maven/gradle project using JitPack. The latest version requires Java 11 or higher.

Gradle Example:

allprojects {
  repositories {
    maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
  }
}
  
dependencies {
  implementation 'com.github.inwc3:wc3libs:-SNAPSHOT'
}

Feature Overview

Reading maps

This project uses another one of our projects, JMPQ to read and write mpq archives, ie warcraft 3 maps.

Data Formats

Wc3libs supports read and write operations for the following data types:

  • Map Data formats: .w3c, .w3i, .w3r, .w3s, .w3v, .shd, .mmp, .wpm, .doo, .imp, header and footer
  • Asset Data formats: .mdx, .mdl, .blp, .jpg, .tga
  • Object Data formats: .w3a, .w3b, .w3d, .w3h, .w3q, .w3t, .w3u
  • Plain Text formats: .slk, profile .txt, .fdf
  • Trigger Data formats: .wct, .wtg, .j, .wts
  • Campaign Data formats: .w3f

Object Data Transformation

Wc3libs can transform object definitions between the binary objectmod format and raw slk/txt formats. The raw file handling also comes with inbuilt cleaning to prevent bloating maps.
